Thrown out of game for update??

CJ-UK · Jun 27, 2014

Hi,

I was happy playing Watchdogs in the middle of a game when all of a sudden I get thrown out and told "an update is required" then had to sit and wait for a 120Mb update to install, I've now got back into the game but it's started from my last save and I've
lost the progress I had made!

Is this intended behaviour?

Shouldn't updates wait till an appropriate time to install rather than forcing an install during the middle of game play?

Thanks

:)

Thrown out again!!

Every time I try to play Klondike or Tritowers, I get thrown out.

I see from the discussions I am not the only one suffering this.

Please post what you guys are doing to remedy this so we know what's going on.

Hello LiquidDark,

I am sorry to hear that you are experiencing these problems. I too have be subjected to the occasional boot from mid-game. But it's nothing to be overly alarmed over.

In most cases, any required update will be downloaded when a game is idle, you have sat at the main menu for any amount of time, or upon complete of a mission or multiplayer. However, some updates are required at very specific times. One of the most recent
games that has had this happen frequently is Call of Duty: Ghosts.

If your console has been set up for the Automatic Updates, this is another contributing factor that needs to be taken into consideration. Although it does help to have games automatically update, it can cause certain issues to arise, such
as yours. If you are keen on being able to play through a game without interruption, I would recommend turning off the Automatic Updates while you are playing.

I hope this helps!

Step 1.

Visual demonstration;

Hit the Windows key + R, type in 'regedit' and press enter. Then navigate to the following regedit directory;
Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\EdgeUI

Step 2.

Visual demonstration;
*

It is very likely that you do NOT already have a folder here called 'EdgeUI'.
If you do not, simply create it by right clicking on the right side of the explorer window, go to 'New' and then 'Key'. Name this new key you create 'EdgeUI'.

Step 3.

Visual demonstration;

Next, inside of the 'EdgeUI' folder you just found/created, right click again and create a 'DWORD (32-bit) Value'. Name it 'AllowEdgeSwipe', as marked at the top of the picture.

Step 4.

Visual demonstration;

Right click the DWORD named 'AllowEdgeSwipe' you just created and press 'Modify...'. Make sure it says '0' under 'Value data:' and press 'OK'.

Step 5.

Reboot your PC and try again.

Thank you so much!! Now i can play with no cursor error more!!!

Excited for the new updates to the weapons that always get thrown out when something betters comes along. The Alternator with the new mod is insane and melts through enemy shields like its butter.
